North African wetland lakes: characterization of nine sites included in the CASSARINA Project
Ramdani, Mohammed; Flower, Roger J.; Elkhiati, Najat; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Fathi, Adel A.; Birks, Hilary H.; Patrick, Simon T. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Exploitation of land and water resources has increased rapidly in North Africa during the 20th century, paralleling regional population growth. As part of the CASSARINA Project (see Flower, 2001), the environmental status ... -
Open water zooplankton communities in North African wetland lakes: the CASSARINA Project
Ramdani, Mohammed; Elkhiati, Najat; Flower, Roger J.; Birks, Hilary H.; Kraïem, Mejdidine M.; Fathi, Adel A.; Patrick, Simon T. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Zooplankton (Copepoda, Cladocera, Ostracoda, Rotifera and Diptera larvae) in nine North African lakes was collected from open water areas over twenty months during 1997/99. The results were used to monitor changes in the ... -
Palaeolimnological responses of nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project to recent environmental changes and human impact detected by plant macrofossil, pollen, and faunal analyses
Birks, Hilary H.; Peglar, Sylvia M.; Boomer, Ian; Flower, Roger J.; Ramdani, Mohammed; Appleby, P. G.; Bjune, Anne Elisabeth; Patrick, Simon T.; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Fathi, Adel A.; Abdelzaher, H. M. A. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)This paper presents multi-proxy palaeolimnological analyses from recent sediments in the nine CASSARINA lakes in northernmost Africa, three from each of Morocco, Tunisia, and Egypt. The lakes are diverse, ranging from ... -
Terrestrial pollen record of recent land-use changes around nine North African lakes in the CASSARINA Project
Birks, Hilary H.; Birks, Harry John Betteley; Appleby, P. G.; Fathi, Adel A.; Flower, Roger J.; Kraïem, Mohammed M.; Patrick, Simon T.; Ramdani, Mohammed (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2001)Pollen analyses and related plant macrofossil records are presented from short cores from nine North African lakes in the EU-funded CASSARINA project. Terrestrial pollen reflects human impact on the vegetation and landscape ...
